Operating principle
The Exocet has been the French anti-ship flagship since 1979 — sea-skimming, subsonic, range 70 km (early versions) to 200 km (MM40 Block 3C, in service since 2022). Block 3C improves the J-band seeker against ECCM, adds a satellite uplink, and has an anti-littoral mode against smaller targets in chaotic coastal environments. Widely fielded in 30+ countries — a single Argentine Exocet attack sank HMS Sheffield in the Falklands War of 1982, one of the most historic combat AShM results.
